Blue Piece, 1998
Compossible cheesecloth, wax
Dimensions variable, cheesecloth squares 25 x 25 cm
Blue Piece is a visual evocation of transformation and impermanence.
1600 cheesecloth squares (25x25cm), each soaked in wax so that it can maintain a given shape, are positioned in a chosen environment.
The work has no set form or dimension, allowing each installation to become a temporary aspect of its surroundings, transforming the site and in turn transformed by it.
Compossible is a collaboration with composer David Harris, performed at the 1998 Festival of Arts in Adelaide, Australia, and in Stuttgart, Germany 1999.
